12" iBook vs. 13" Macbook

Found this while surfing through Digg.com and thought I should share with the users here:

Just what does the extra $100 get you?

Here are also the first benchmarks:

The 14-inch iBook/1.42GHz G4 kills it in Speedmark 4.5 and Adobe Photoshop CS2 but the Macbook does better in everything else.

It also notes how it's not for gaming with a mere 17.8 average frame rate on Unreal Tournament 2004. But everyone should have already figured that out by now...

Hmm with that said I may not upgrade from my new iBook to the MacBook.
